'Trylove in the Time of Coronavirus' Episode 1 [feat. John Moret]

Featuring special guest John Moret!

Things are tough for everyone during the COVID-19 crisis, so it can sometimes feel a little indulgent to even worry about things like repertory cinema. But as we talked with Trylon Film Programmer John Moret about how the Trylon and the people behind it are dealing with the pressure, it became clear that keeping in touch – even if it’s kind of all bad news – isn't a bad way to deal with the day-to-day.

While confusion runs high, John and the team remain optimistic about the rest of 2020. In this special remote episode, we talk about film procurement amid a nationwide pandemic, how being an independent cinema gives the Trylon some mobility in times like these, and what everyone’s watching in the meantime.
